Maryville-2

TN High-0

 

Pepe saved our field and let us play at Maryville College. Conditions were great considering the terrible weather. Maryville had the better first half, but TN High was able to put Maryville on their heels in the second. Good luck to TN High the rest of the way. It is always great to see Coach Valente and company.

Farragut 1

Oak Ridge 1

 

Ugly game; 38 and rainy. Farragut only played about 20 minutes - first 10 and last 10, while Oakridge picked it up in the middle part of the match. Both goals off of headers; Farragut early 1st half, a set piece about 25 yards out Ishmael put ball to about 8-10 yards out and Stinton flipped it past Ryan with no chance to stop. Oakridge header resulted from a poor Matlock clear (throw) directly to a SoccerCat, ball eventually chipped to an open Pugh(?) left side of goalie box for open net header. Oakridge played well in spots, but really didn't have much penetration. Admirals outshot them by a 9-3 margin and corners favored Admirals as well, just couldn??™t put it in net more than once. It's early and likely will match up again during payoffs.

 

Earlier post wondered about the #1 rating legitimacy. Team reloaded with a strong junior class. Sr. class has some good role players, but having only two impact leaders, Grieco, MacLellan, may hurt down the road, though juniors do have ability to step it up.

mccallie went to atlanta and played 3 games this Friday and today. Played Carollton ranked number 1# 3a team in Ga first. Flue has run throughout the team and we played without 4 starters, score was 0-0, next we played Norcross won 2-1 and then a school from Columbus Ga and ran out of gas and lost 1-0. Really proud of the team showed a lot fight against very good teams. It was wet and cold as it was everywhere else. Will be nice to get a full starting 11 on the field and healthy. Hope that happens soon.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
